What is student loan Exit Counseling?
Student loan exit counseling is an online process offered by the US Department of Education through StudentLoans.gov that walks students through the federal loan(s) they signed up for to pay for their education.
The purpose of loan counseling is to prepare student borrowers for repayment. It is mandatory for students who took out subsidized, unsubsidized, or PLUS loan(s) under the Federal Direct Loan Program.
The school will be notified electronically that you have completed the Exit Counseling process.听听 Private student loan borrowers are not required to complete exit counseling.

Fast Facts
鈥� You can pick from repayment plans that base your monthly payment on your income or plans that give you a fixed monthly payment.
鈥� Repayment plans based on your income are a smart choice to lower your payment. The lower your income鈥攐r the larger your family size鈥攖he less you鈥檒l pay each month.
鈥� If you don鈥檛 pick a repayment plan and your loan was disbursed on or after July 1, 2026, your loan servicer will place you on the Tiered Standard Plan (a 10-year fixed payment repayment plan). This plan might result in a higher monthly payment for you.

How to avoid defaulting on your loans
Two important terms you don鈥檛 want to see on your loan account:
鈥� Delinquency: A loan becomes delinquent when a loan payment is not received on time.
鈥� Default: For federal student loans, default is when you have failed to make the agreed-upon periodic payments on a loan after a number of days in delinquency. For more information, please visit the Federal Student Aid website.
Neither is good for a borrower and their credit score, but defaulting on a loan is decidedly worse. The exit counseling course provides borrowers with information on how to avoid these two events, and what to do if they can鈥檛 avoid delinquency.
